It took five years to write, but here's the full story behind Lambda School, Silicon Valley's disastrous foray into for-profit education.
I explain how they burned through $120 million in funding, why Income Share Agreements failed, the crimes committed along the way, and how one developer turned journalist put an end to the fraud.

I haven't followed any conversation about this, but in Xcode 26, it seems like navigation history extends across tabs you've navigated to.
Example: if switch from tab A to tab B, and then hit "Back", it just opens tab A again.
I've given this behavior six months, and it's just maddening. Is there a way to revert this to the old way?
Security researchers: am I overly cynical, or are all the "content authenticity" initiatives meant to prove a photo is real a giant waste of time?
If the photo is cryptographically signed by the camera, the private key will just get pulled from the device.
Even if the photos are signed, you can just strip the metadata. Users will default to trust.
Even if the photo maintains a chain of trust, you can just fake a photo by taking a photo of a screen.
What am I missing?
2002: “Organize the world’s information.”
2007: “Connect with all your friends.”
2012: “The Sharing Economy.”
2017: “I don’t know. Chat bots?”
2020: “Ponzi schemes.”
2023: "Trust me, it's AI."
